distributor-clone-fix-addon

Distributor Clone Fix add-on is for extending the Distributor Plugin functionality to fix subscriptions if destination site was cloned

Requirements

• PHP 5.6+
• WordPress 4.7+
• Distributor plug-in

Plugin installation

• You can build plugin yourself (see development) or download latest stable build

Usage example

Lets assume you've created external connection with distributor plugin from Source site to Destination. Then you've distributed some posts to Destination and in some reason you needed Destination to be cloned. So, you cloned it, we'll name it Clone. Now you created external connection for Clone from Destination. Now, the problem is, that all your posts in Clone will have Subscription created for Destination. This add-on will resolve that case. Let's do it step by step

• Install Distributor Clone Fix add-on on both sides ( Source & Clone ).
• After You've installed add-on, Fix Connection action will appear in wp-admin post listing pages bulk actions.
• Please note that post type must be distributable. see distributable_post_types function in utils.php distributor plugin
• Select Posts that you want to be fixed, then select Fix Connection from bulk actions and press apply.
• You will be prompted to select connection, for our example it will be connection created for Clone. Select it and press apply again.
• That's all! After action completed add-on will show you notification about success or failure.
• Please note that this add-on was tested for single-site installation with external connections.

Development and manual builds

• We are using Webpack for assets compiling and minify and Babel for transpiling JavaScript code.
• So, you need npm and composer installed.
• After you cloned repository, make sure to run npm i && composer install in repository root.
• Then you must build assets. Simply run npm run build.
